Smart Dynamic Stop Loss (SDSL) IndicatorSmart Dynamic Stop Loss (SDSL) Indicator
The Smart Dynamic Stop Loss (SDSL) Indicator creates a stop loss level that dynamically adapts to market conditions.
How It Works / How To Calculate:
1. **Initialization**: The indicator initially sets a stop loss level at a specified percentage (default 2%, user-adjustable) below the current price.
2. **Upward Movement**: As the price rises, the stop loss level moves up as well. However, it always remains at the specified percentage below the highest price reached. This allows the price room to move while protecting gains.
3. **Downward or Sideways Movement**: When the price falls or moves sideways, the stop loss level remains static. This prevents premature exits during minor pullbacks or consolidations.
4. **Price Crosses Below Stop Loss**: If the price drops below the stop loss level, the indicator resets. It sets a new stop loss level at the specified percentage below the low of the candle where the crossover occurred.
5. **Continuous Adaptation**: This process repeats across the entire chart, constantly adjusting to price movements.
note: When the price intersects with the dynamic stop loss line, it resets at 2% below the candle's lowest value (this is the default value, but it can be adjusted by the user)
Key Features
- **User-Configurable**: The stop loss percentage can be adjusted by the user.
- **Visual Alerts**: The indicator plots the stop loss line on the chart.
- **Triggered Signals**: Optional visual signals are displayed when the stop loss is triggered.
- **Information Display**: A data box shows the current stop loss level.
Usage
1. Apply the indicator to the chart.
2. Adjust the stop loss percentage if desired (default is 2%).
3. Monitor the dynamic stop loss level.
4. Watch for visual alerts for potential signals.
Smart Money Concepts by WeloTradesThe "Smart Money Concepts by WeloTrades" indicator is designed to offer traders a comprehensive tool that integrates multiple advanced features to aid in market analysis. By combining order blocks, liquidity levels, fair value gaps, trendlines, and market structure analysis, the indicator provides a holistic approach to understanding market dynamics and making informed trading decisions.
Components and Their Integration:
Order Blocks and Breaker Blocks Detection
Functionality: Order blocks represent areas where significant buying or selling occurred, creating potential support or resistance zones. Breaker blocks signal potential reversals.
Integration: By detecting and visualizing these blocks, the indicator helps traders identify key levels where price might react, aiding in entry and exit decisions. The customizable settings allow traders to adjust the visibility and parameters to suit their specific trading strategy.
Liquidity Levels Analysis
Functionality: Liquidity levels indicate zones where significant price movements can occur due to the presence of large orders. These are areas where smart money might be executing trades.
Integration: By tracking these high-probability liquidity areas, traders can anticipate potential price movements. Customizable display limits and mitigation strategies ensure that the information is tailored to the trader’s needs, providing precise and actionable insights.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Functionality: Fair value gaps highlight areas where there is an imbalance between buyers and sellers. These gaps often represent potential trading opportunities.
Integration: The ability to identify and analyze FVGs helps traders spot potential entries based on market inefficiencies. The touch and break detection functionalities provide further refinement, enhancing the precision of trading signals.
Trendlines
Functionality: Trendlines help in identifying the direction of the market and potential reversal points. The additional trendline adds a layer of confirmation for breaks or retests.
Integration: Automatically drawn trendlines assist traders in visualizing market trends and making decisions about potential entries and exits. The additional trendline for stronger confirmation reduces the risk of false signals, providing more reliable trading opportunities.
Market Structure Analysis
Functionality: Understanding market structure is crucial for identifying key support and resistance levels and overall market dynamics. This component displays internal, external, and composite market structures.
Integration: By automatically highlighting shifts in market structure, the indicator helps traders recognize important levels and potential changes in market direction. This analysis is critical for strategic planning and execution in trading.
Customizable Alerts
Functionality: Alerts ensure that traders do not miss significant market events, such as the formation or breach of order blocks, liquidity levels, and trendline interactions.
Integration: Customizable alerts enhance the user experience by providing timely notifications of key events. This feature ensures that traders can act quickly and efficiently, leveraging the insights provided by the indicator.
Interactive Visualization
Functionality: Customizable visual aspects of the indicator allow traders to tailor the display to their preferences and trading style.
Integration: This feature enhances user engagement and usability, making it easier for traders to interpret the data and make informed decisions. Personalization options like colors, styles, and display formats improve the overall effectiveness of the indicator.
How Components Work Together
Comprehensive Market Analysis
Each component of the indicator addresses a different aspect of market analysis. Order blocks and liquidity levels highlight potential support and resistance zones, while fair value gaps and trendlines provide additional context for potential entries and exits. Market structure analysis ties everything together by offering a broad view of market dynamics.
Synergistic Insights
The integration of multiple features allows for cross-validation of trading signals. For instance, an order block coinciding with a high-probability liquidity level and a fair value gap can provide a stronger signal than any of these features alone. This synergy enhances the reliability of the insights and trading signals generated by the indicator.
Enhanced Decision Making
By combining these advanced features into a single tool, traders are equipped with a powerful resource for making informed decisions. The customizable alerts and interactive visualization further support this by ensuring that traders can act quickly on the insights provided.

Smart Market Structure and Swing Points, version 1.0Smart Market Structure and Swing Points, Version 1.0
Overview
The Smart Market Structure and Swing Points script is designed to provide advanced insights into market structure and key swing points. This script helps identify important highs and lows, trend direction changes (structure breaks), and swing points, enhancing decision-making for both trend-following and reversal strategies. See below for detail presentation and why it has unique features.
Unique Features of the New Script
Market Structure Identification : Analyzes and marks key highs and lows to determine market structure, including higher highs, lower highs, higher lows, and lower lows.
Customizable Detection Length : Allows users to set the length for detecting highs and lows, providing flexibility to adapt to different market conditions and timeframes. Default value is 5 bars, but can be changed if needed.
Visual Signal Indicators (Labels) : Plots labels on the chart to indicate higher highs (HH), lower highs (LH), higher lows (HL), and lower lows (LL), along with corresponding RSI values, offering clear visual cues for market structure analysis. The indication of RSI values directly on high and low points enables to better judge whether the points are strong references (extreme RSI values) or weak references (middle RSI values)
Dynamic Trend Lines : Draws solid and dotted lines to connect significant highs and lows, visually representing the current trend direction and potential trend changes. Dashed lines indicates structure breaks.
Swing High and Swing Low Detection : Identifies and marks the most recent swing highs and swing lows, helping traders spot potential reversal points and key levels for setting stop losses or take profit targets .
Originality and Usefulness
This script combines market structure, trend breaks and RSI to provide a more robust view of market dynamic by indicating the strength or weakness of swing points , in that way the script is unique.
Signal Description
The script includes various signal features that highlight potential trading opportunities based on market structure:
Higher Highs (HH) and Higher Lows (HL) : These labels are plotted when new highs or lows are formed, indicating a continuation of an uptrend. The labels are positioned with consideration of the Average True Range (ATR) for better visibility.
Lower Highs (LH) and Lower Lows (LL) : These labels are plotted when new highs or lows are formed, indicating a continuation of a downtrend. The labels include RSI values to provide additional information on the strength or weakness of the points.
Trend Direction Change : Dotted lines are drawn to indicate potential trend direction changes when the script detects significant shifts in market structure.
Swing Highs and Swing Lows : These are identified based on a customizable swing length, marking recent significant highs and lows to highlight potential reversal points.
These signals help identify high-probability turning points and confirm trend direction by ensuring that the market structure aligns with the trading strategy.
Detailed Description
Input Variables
Length for High/Low Detection (`length`) : Defines the range to check for highs and lows. Default is 5.
RSI Length (`rsilength`) : The number of periods to calculate the RSI. Default is 14.
Functionality
Market Structure Calculation : The script determines the highest high and lowest low within the specified range to identify key points in market structure.
```pine
h = ta.highest(high, length * 2 + 1)
l = ta.lowest(low, length * 2 + 1)
```
Directional Logic : Variables and functions manage the state of the indicator, updating highs and lows based on the current trend direction.
```pine
var bool dirUp = false
var float lastLow = high * 100
var float lastHigh = 0.0
// Additional variables for tracking state
```
Drawing Lines and Labels : Functions draw lines and labels on the chart to visualize market structure and trend changes.
```pine
f_drawLine() =>
_li_color = dirUp ? color.red : color.lime
line.new(x1=timeHigh - length, y1=lastHigh, x2=timeLow - length, y2=lastLow, color=_li_color, width=3, style=line.style_solid, xloc=xloc.bar_index)
f_drawLastLine() =>
_li_color = dirUp ? color.blue : color.blue
if timeHigh > timeLow
line.new(x1=timeHigh - length, y1=lastHigh, x2=bar_index, y2=low, color=_li_color, width=2, style=line.style_dotted, xloc=xloc.bar_index)
else
line.new(x1=timeLow - length, y1=lastLow, x2=bar_index, y2=high, color=_li_color, width=2, style=line.style_dotted, xloc=xloc.bar_index)
```
Updating Highs and Lows : The main logic updates highs and lows based on the current trend direction, adding labels for new higher highs, lower highs, higher lows, and lower lows.
```pine
if dirUp
if f_isMin(length)
lastLow := low
// Additional logic for updating lows and labels
if f_isMax(length) and high > lastLow
lastHigh := high
// Additional logic for updating highs and labels
dirUp := false
li := f_drawLine()
```
Swing Highs and Lows : The script identifies recent swing highs and swing lows based on a customizable swing length, drawing lines to mark these points.
```pine
swingLength = 3 * length
isSwingHigh = ta.highestbars(high, swingLength) == 0
isSwingLow = ta.lowestbars(low, swingLength) == 0
if (isSwingHigh)
if (na(highLine))
highLine := line.new(bar_index, high, bar_index, high, color=color.green, style=line.style_solid, width=1)
else
line.set_xy1(highLine, bar_index, high)
line.set_xy2(highLine, bar_index + swingLength, high)
if (isSwingLow)
if (na(lowLine))
lowLine := line.new(bar_index, low, bar_index, low, color=color.red, style=line.style_solid, width=1)
else
line.set_xy1(lowLine, bar_index, low)
line.set_xy2(lowLine, bar_index + swingLength, low)
```

Smart Money Oscillator [ChartPrime]The "Smart Money Oscillator " is a premium and discount zone oscillator with BOS and CHoCH built in for further analysis of price action. This indicator works by first determining the the premium and discount zones by using pivot points and high/lows. The top of this oscillator represents the current premium zone while the bottom half of this oscillator represents the discount zone. This oscillator functionally works like a stochastic oscillator with more sophisticated upper and lower bounds generated using smart money concept theories. We have included a moving average to allow the user to visualize the currant momentum in the oscillator. Another key feature we have included lagging divergences to help traders visualize potential reversal conditions.
Understanding the concepts of Premium and Discount zones, as well as Break of Structure (BoS) and Change of Character (CHoCH), is crucial for traders using the Smart Money Oscillator. These concepts are rooted in market structure analysis, which involves studying price levels and movements.
Premium Zone is where the price is considered to be relatively high or 'overbought'. In this zone, prices have risen significantly and may indicate that the asset is becoming overvalued, potentially leading to a reversal or slowdown in the upward trend.
The Discount Zone represents a 'discount' or 'oversold' area. Here, prices have fallen substantially, suggesting that the asset might be undervalued. This could be an indicator of a potential upward reversal or a pause in the downward trend.
Break of Structure (BoS) is about the continuation of a trend. In a bullish trend, a BoS is identified by the break of a recent higher high. In a bearish trend, it's the break of a recent Lower Low. BoS indicates that the trend is strong and likely to continue in its current direction. It's a sign of strength in the prevailing trend, whether up or down.
Change of Character (CHoCH) is an indication of a potential end to a trend. It occurs when there's a significant change in the market's behavior, contradicting the current trend. For example, in an uptrend characterized by higher highs and higher lows, a CHoCH may occur if a new high is formed but then is followed by an impulsive move downwards. This suggests that the bullish trend may be weakening and a bearish reversal could be imminent. CHoCH is essentially a sign of trend exhaustion and potential reversal.
With each consecutive BoS, the signal line of the oscillator will deepen in color. This allows you to visually see the strength of the current trend. The maximum strength of the trend is found by keeping track of the maximum number of consecutive BoS's within a window of 10. This calculation excludes periods without any BoS's to allow for a more stable max.
Quick Update is a feature that implements a more aggressive algorithm to update the highs and lows. Instead of updating the pivot points exclusively to update the range levels, it will attempt to use the current historical highs/lows to update the bounds. This results in a more responsive range at the cost of stability. There are pros and cons for both settings. With Quick Update disabled, the indicator will allow for strong reversals to register without the indicator maxing out. With Quick Update enabled, the indicator will show shorter term extremes with the risk of the signal being pinned to the extremities during strong trends or large movements. With Quick Update disabled, the oscillator prioritizes stability, using a more historical perspective to set its bounds. When Quick Update is enabled, the oscillator becomes more responsive, adjusting its bounds rapidly to reflect the latest market movements.
The Scale Offset feature allows the indicator to break the boundaries of the oscillator. This can be useful when the market is breaking highs or lows allowing the user to identify extremities in price. With Scale Offset disabled the oscillator will always remain inside of the boundaries because the extremities will be updated instantly. When this feature is enabled it will update the boundaries one step behind instead of updating it instantly. This allows the user to more easily see overbought and oversold conditions at the cost of incurring a single bar lag to the boundaries. Generally this is a good idea as this behavior makes the oscillator more sensitive to recent price spikes or drops, reflecting sudden market movements more accurately. It accentuates the extremities of the market conditions, potentially offering a more aggressive analysis. The main trade-off with the Scale Offset feature is between sensitivity and potential overreaction. It offers a more immediate and exaggerated reflection of market conditions but might also lead to misinterpretations in certain scenarios, especially in highly volatile markets.
Divergence is used to predict potential trend reversals. It occurs when the price of an asset and the reading of an oscillator move in opposite directions. This discrepancy can signal a weakening of the current trend and possibly indicate a potential reversal.
Divergence doesn't always lead to a trend reversal, but it's a warning sign that the current trend might be weakening. Divergence can sometimes give false signals, particularly in strongly trending markets where the oscillator may remain in overbought or oversold conditions for extended periods. The lagging nature of using pivot points to calculate divergences means that all divergences are limited by the pivot look forward input. The upside of using a longer look forward is that the divergences will be more accurate. The obvious con here is that it will be more delayed and might be useless by the time it appears. Its recommended to use the built in divergences as a way to learn how these are formed so you can make your own in real time.
By default, the oscillator uses a smoothing of 3 to allow for a more price like behavior while still being rather smooth compared to raw price data. Conversely, you can increase this value to make this indicator behave smoother. Something to keep in mind is that the amount of delay from real time is equal to half of the smoothing period.
We have included a verity of alerts in this indicator. Here is a list of all of the available alerts: Bullish BOS, Bearish BOS, Bullish CHoCH, Bearish CHoCH, Bullish Divergence, Hidden Bullish Divergence, Bearish Divergence, Hidden Bearish Divergence, Cross Over Average, Cross Under Average.
Below are all of the inputs and their tooltips to get you started:
Settings:
Smoothing: Specifies the degree of smoothing applied to the oscillator. Higher values result in smoother but potentially less responsive signals.
Average Length: Sets the length of the moving average applied to the oscillator, affecting its sensitivity and smoothness.
Pivot Length: Specifies the forward-looking length for pivot points, affecting how the oscillator anticipates future price movements. This directly impacts the delay in finding a pivot.
Max Length: Sets the maximum length to consider for calculating the highest values in the oscillator.
Min Length: Defines the minimum length for calculating the lowest values in the oscillator.
Quick Update: Activates a faster update mode for the oscillator's extremities, which may result in less stable range boundaries.
Scale Offset: When enabled, delays updating minimum and maximum values to enhance signal directionality, allowing the signal to occasionally exceed normal bounds.
Candle Color: Enables coloring of candles based on the current directional signal of the oscillator.
Labels:
Enable BOS/CHoCH Labels: Activates the display of BOS (Break of Structure) and CHoCH (Change of Character) labels on the chart.
Visual Padding: Turns on additional visual padding at the top and bottom of the chart to accommodate labels. Determines the amount of visual padding added to the chart for label display.
Divergence:
Divergence Pivot: Defines the number of bars to the right of the pivot in divergence calculations, influencing the oscillator's responsiveness.
Divergence Pivot Forward: Directly impacts latency. Longer periods results in more accurate results at the sacrifice of delay.
Upper Range: Sets the upper range limit for divergence calculations, influencing the oscillator's sensitivity to larger trends.
Lower Range: Determines the lower range limit for divergence calculations, affecting the oscillator's sensitivity to shorter trends.

Smart MAThe Smart MA indicator is a tool designed for traders seeking insights into market trends, with its foundation rooted in moving averages. It offers two distinctive color options, with "Crossing" as the default choice and "Direction" as an alternative. Let's delve deeper into these options:
1. "Crossing" Color Option (Default):
Key Features:
Utilizes the interaction between fast and slow moving averages.
The color of the base moving average (MA) line dynamically changes based on crossovers between these moving averages.
Offers real-time visual signals for potential shifts in market sentiment.
Interpretation:
With the "Crossing" color option as the default setting, the base MA line's color responds to the interaction of the fast and slow moving averages.
A crossover where the fast MA crosses above the slow MA may prompt the base MA line to change to a bullish color (e.g., teal), indicating a potential bullish trend.
Conversely, if the fast MA crosses below the slow MA, the base MA line's color may alter to represent a bearish sentiment (e.g., red). This color shift provides a visual marker for a potential bearish trend, potentially guiding traders towards shorting opportunities.
2. "Direction" Color Option:
Key Features:
Focuses on the directional trend of the base moving average (MA).
The color of the base MA line signifies the direction in which the base MA is moving.
Aids in quickly identifying the prevailing market trend.
Interpretation:
Uptrend - Bullish Direction: When the base MA slopes upward, indicating an average price increase over the chosen base MA length, the base MA line's color may shift to a bullish hue (e.g., teal). This visual cue signals a potential uptrend, suggesting favorable long positions.
Downtrend - Bearish Direction: If the base MA slopes downward, signifying an average price decrease over the selected base MA length, the base MA line could change to a bearish shade (e.g., red). This color shift acts as an indicator of a potential downtrend, implying possible opportunities for shorting.
Customization:
Both color options allow traders to adjust the indicator's parameters, including base MA length, MA type, fast MA length, and slow MA length, to align with their trading strategies and preferred timeframes.
In summary, the Smart MA indicator, based on moving averages, provides traders with two color options: the default "Crossing" and "Direction" as an alternative. The "Crossing" option leverages fast and slow moving averages to offer real-time visual cues for dynamic market shifts. The "Direction" option simplifies trend analysis by focusing on the directional trend of the base MA. The choice between these options depends on your trading style and the depth of analysis you require. With the Smart MA indicator, you're equipped to make informed trading decisions in today's financial markets.
Smart Disparity IndexThe Smart Disparity Index (SDI) is an optimized version of the Disparity Index indicator invented by Steve Nison (book "Beyond Candlesticks").
According to Steve Nison, "The disparity index (or disparity ratio), compares, as a percentage, the latest close to a chosen moving average", which means that the indicator gives the difference in % between the closing price and a simple moving average.
The calculation formula is therefore as follows:
Disparity Index = 100 x (closing_price - simple_moving_average) / simple_moving_average
In order to optimize the calculation, I replaced the closing price with the 6-period exponential moving average (EMA6) which, according to many years of experience, allows prices to be smoothed by eliminating excesses.
Formula for calculating the Smart Disparity Index:
SDI = 100 x (EMA6 - simple_moving_average) / simple_moving_average
The provided script displays the SDI for the 20, 50, 100 and 200 periods.
From my point of view, I recommend using the SDI50 as a priority:
SDI50 = 100 x (EMA6 - SMA50) / SMA50
In the chart, we can see the SDI50 (in purple) is on a long-term support (in green), this indicates a probability of a Bitcoin rise in the coming months.
The SDI can also be used as a momentum type indicator.
Smart Relative Strength Can Remove False SignalsRelative strength is one of the most useful indicators in the market, highlighting when stocks and sectors are outperforming or underperforming a broader index.
Traditional RS compares the percentage change of one symbol over a given time frame and subtracts the percentage change of the S&P 500 over the same period.
This is handy, but it can produce false signals at times of volatility. For example, when the broader market is crashing, certain sectors may “outperform” simply by falling less than the S&P 500.
Smart Relative Strength addresses this shortcoming by requiring that the symbol’s absolute AND relative returns both be positive. Otherwise a zero is returned.
This was useful last week on the Dow Jones Transportation Average . Using simple relative strength, it had its best one-week performance against the S&P 500 since October 2008. This was obviously a false signal because October 2008 was a time that everything else was crashing.
Smart Relative Strength showed that, excluding periods of overall decline, DJT had its best week since January 2008.
Note: This chart uses a 1-period interval, while the code defaults to 21 periods.
Smart Trader, Episode 03, by Ata Sabanci, Candles and TradelinesA volume-based multi-block analysis system designed for educational purposes. This indicator helps traders understand their current market situation through aggregated block analysis, volumetric calculations, trend detection, and an AI-style narrative engine.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: CLEAN CHART, RICH DASHBOARD
Traditional indicators often clutter charts with dozens of support/resistance lines, making it difficult to see price action clearly. This indicator takes a different approach:
The Chart:
Displays only the most meaningful, nearest levels (1 up, 1 down) that have not been consumed by price. This keeps your chart clean and focused on what matters right now.
The Dashboard:
Contains all detailed metrics, calculations, and analysis. Instead of drawing 20 lines on your chart, you get comprehensive data in an organized table format.
Why this approach?
• A clean chart allows you to see price action without visual noise
• Fewer but more meaningful levels help focus attention on immediate reference points
• The dashboard provides depth without sacrificing chart clarity
• Beginners can learn chart reading with an uncluttered view while accessing detailed analysis when needed
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. BLOCK SEGMENTATION
What it does:
Divides the analysis window into fixed-size blocks. Each block contains multiple bars that are analyzed as a single unit.
Why:
Individual bars contain noise. A single red candle in an uptrend might cause unnecessary concern, but when you view 5-10 bars as one block, the overall direction becomes clear. Block segmentation filters out bar-to-bar noise and reveals the underlying structure.
Benefit:
• Clearer view of market structure at a higher aggregation level
• Enables comparison between time periods (Block 1 vs Block 2 vs Block 3)
• Creates the foundation for composite candles and trend detection
• Reduces emotional reaction to single-bar movements
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
2. COMPOSITE CANDLES (FRACTAL CONCEPT)
What it does:
Each block generates a "ghost candle" representing aggregated OHLC:
• Open: First bar's open in the block
• High: Highest high across all bars in the block
• Low: Lowest low across all bars in the block
• Close: Last bar's close in the block
Why:
This is essentially a FRACTAL view of the market. The same candlestick patterns that appear on a daily chart also appear on hourly charts, and on 5-minute charts. By aggregating bars into composite candles, you create a synthetic higher timeframe view without changing your actual timeframe.
Benefit:
• See higher timeframe patterns while staying on your preferred timeframe
• Identify block-level candlestick patterns (Doji, Hammer, Marubozu, Engulfing, etc.)
• Compare composite candle relationships: Does Block 1 engulf Block 2? Is Block 1 an inside bar relative to Block 2?
• Recognize patterns that individual bars obscure due to noise
Fractal Nature:
A hammer pattern means the same thing whether it appears on a 1-minute chart or a weekly chart: price tested lower levels and was rejected. Composite candles let you see these patterns at your chosen aggregation level, providing a multi-scale view of market behavior.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
3. VOLUME ENGINE
What it does:
This indicator is 100% VOLUME-BASED. It separates total volume into buying volume and selling volume using two methods:
Method 1 - Geometric (Approximation):
• Buy Volume = Total Volume × ((Close - Low) / Range)
• Sell Volume = Total Volume × ((High - Close) / Range)
Method 2 - Intrabar LTF (Precise):
Uses actual tick-level or lower timeframe data to determine real buy/sell distribution.
Why:
Raw volume tells you HOW MUCH was traded, but not WHO was aggressive. A large volume bar could mean heavy buying, heavy selling, or both. By separating buy and sell volume, you can identify which side is driving the market.
Benefit:
• Identify whether buyers or sellers are more aggressive
• Detect when volume contradicts price direction (divergence)
• Measure accumulation (buying into weakness) vs distribution (selling into strength)
• Quantify the delta (buy minus sell) to see net pressure
Why Delta Matters:
If price is rising but delta is negative, sellers are actually more aggressive despite the price increase. This divergence often precedes reversals because the price movement lacks volume confirmation.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
4. PIN ANALYSIS (WICK MEASUREMENT)
What it does:
Calculates average upper pin (wick) and lower pin sizes for each block, then tracks how these change across consecutive blocks.
Why:
Upper pins represent price levels that were tested but rejected by sellers. Lower pins represent price levels that were tested but rejected by buyers. The size and direction of pins reveal rejection strength at specific price zones.
Benefit:
• Large upper pins = strong selling pressure at higher levels
• Large lower pins = strong buying support at lower levels
• Increasing upper pins across blocks = intensifying selling pressure
• Decreasing lower pins across blocks = weakening buying support
Why Track Pin Changes:
Pin behavior often changes before price direction changes. If lower pins are shrinking while price is still rising, the buying support that was defending dips is weakening. This is observable data, not prediction.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
5. TREND CHANNEL DETECTION
What it does:
Identifies trend direction using block-level price structure:
• UPTREND: Block highs are higher than previous block highs, AND block lows are higher than previous block lows (HH/HL pattern)
• DOWNTREND: Block highs are lower than previous block highs, AND block lows are lower than previous block lows (LH/LL pattern)
• RANGE: No consistent directional pattern
Once detected, the system draws upper and lower channel boundaries by connecting extreme points within each trend segment.
Why:
HH/HL and LH/LL are the classical definitions of trend. By applying this logic to composite candles (blocks) rather than individual bars, the trend detection becomes more stable and less prone to whipsaws from single-bar noise.
Benefit:
• Clear visual boundaries showing the current trend channel
• Upper channel line = dynamic resistance based on actual price structure
• Lower channel line = dynamic support based on actual price structure
• Channel angle indicates trend strength (steeper = stronger)
• Channel width indicates volatility
Why Lock Trend States:
Once a block's trend classification is determined, it locks and does not change on subsequent recalculations. Without locking, the same block could flip between UP and DOWN repeatedly, creating inconsistent analysis. Locking ensures stability.
Why Project Lines Forward:
Channel lines can be projected into the future to show where support/resistance would be if the current trend continues at the same angle. This is not a prediction; it is a visual reference showing the trend's trajectory.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
6. CORE LEVELS: POC, MAX BUY, MAX SELL
What it does:
Identifies key price levels within each block based on volume data:
POC (Point of Control):
The price level where the highest total volume occurred within the block.
MAX BUY Level:
The bar with the highest buying volume. The HIGH of this bar marks the level.
MAX SELL Level:
The bar with the highest selling volume. The LOW of this bar marks the level.
MIN BUY/SELL Levels:
Optional levels showing where minimum buy/sell volume occurred.
Why:
High volume at a specific price means many participants entered positions there. These participants have a vested interest in that price level. If price returns to that area, those same participants may act to defend their positions.
Benefit:
• POC acts as a volume-based magnet; price tends to revisit high-volume areas
• MAX BUY level shows where buyers committed most aggressively
• MAX SELL level shows where sellers committed most aggressively
• These levels are based on actual transaction data, not arbitrary calculations
Why Consumed Levels Disappear:
When price crosses through a level, that level has been "tested." Keeping consumed levels on the chart creates visual clutter and suggests they are still relevant when they may no longer be. Removing them keeps focus on levels that have not yet been tested.
Why Show Only Nearest Levels:
If you have 20 blocks, you could have 60+ potential levels (POC, MAX BUY, MAX SELL for each). Displaying all of them makes the chart unreadable. Showing only the nearest untested level above and below current price keeps the chart clean while providing immediate reference points.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
7. QUALITY SCORE AND TREND INTELLIGENCE
What it does:
Calculates a quality score (0-100) for the current trend based on multiple factors:
• Angle steepness (stronger trends have steeper angles)
• Delta consistency (does volume support the trend direction?)
• Volume momentum (is participation increasing or decreasing?)
• Body expansion (are candle bodies growing or shrinking?)
• Pin alignment (do pins support the trend direction?)
• Contradiction count (how many factors disagree?)
Why:
Not all trends are equal. A trend with consistent volume support, expanding bodies, and aligned pins is healthier than a trend with contradicting signals. The quality score quantifies this.
Benefit:
• HIGH quality (80+): Multiple factors confirm the trend
• MEDIUM quality (60-79): Some factors confirm, some neutral
• LOW quality (below 60): Multiple contradictions exist
• Strength rating based on channel angle: VERY STRONG, STRONG, MODERATE, WEAK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
8. NARRATIVE ENGINE
What it does:
Generates a text-based market analysis by synthesizing all calculated data into readable sentences.
How it works:
1. Analyzes current candle: pattern type (Doji, Hammer, Marubozu, etc.), body/wick ratios, range vs ATR
2. Analyzes composite candle: Block 1 pattern and relationship to Block 2 (Engulfing, Inside, Outside)
3. Evaluates trend context: direction, duration, quality, transitions
4. Examines volume data: delta, dominance, momentum direction
5. Checks proximity to key levels: channel boundaries, POC, core levels
6. Identifies divergences: when price and volume directions contradict
7. Produces a coherent narrative describing the current situation
Why:
Numbers and charts require interpretation. The narrative engine translates calculated data into plain language, helping traders understand what the data means in context. This is especially valuable for beginners learning to read charts.
Benefit:
• Synthesizes multiple data points into a coherent story
• Explicitly flags divergences and contradictions
• Describes the current situation without making predictions
• Educational: shows how different factors relate to each other
What the Narrative Does NOT Do:
The narrative describes what IS, not what WILL BE. It does not predict future price movement. It reports the current candle pattern, the current trend state, the current volume situation, and the current proximity to levels.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
9. SMART DASHBOARD
What it does:
Displays all metrics in an organized table with multiple sections.
Sections:
• Volume Engine: Calculation method, data availability, current candle buy/sell/delta
• Trend Volumetrics: Aggregated buy/sell/delta across the current trend, trend type
• Pressure and Momentum: Average pins, pin change percentages, body expansion status
• Trend Channel Boundaries: Upper/lower levels with exact prices, distances, percentages
• Trend Intelligence: Quality score, confidence level, strength rating, volume momentum
Why:
All the detailed calculations need to live somewhere without cluttering the chart. The dashboard provides comprehensive data in a structured format.
Benefit:
• All metrics in one place
• Organized by category for easy reference
• Hover over any label to see a tooltip explaining that metric
• No need to draw dozens of lines on the chart
TIP: Hover over dashboard headers and labels to see tooltips explaining each metric.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
10. LANGUAGE SUPPORT
The indicator supports three languages:
• English
• Türkçe (Turkish)
• हिन्दी (Hindi)
Why only three languages?
Each additional language requires duplicate strings throughout the code, increasing memory usage and compilation time. To keep the script optimized and responsive, language options are limited to these three.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
11. DATA ACCURACY AND LIMITATIONS
This indicator is 100% VOLUME-BASED and requires Lower Timeframe (LTF) intrabar data for accurate calculations.
DATA ACCURACY LEVELS:
• 1T (Tick): Most accurate, real volume distribution per tick
• 1S (1 Second): Reasonably accurate approximation
• 15S (15 Seconds): Good approximation, longer historical data available
• 1M (1 Minute): Rough approximation, maximum historical data range
BACKTEST AND REPLAY LIMITATIONS:
• Replay mode results may differ from live trading due to data availability
• For longer backtest periods, use higher LTF settings (15S or 1M)
• Not all symbols/exchanges support tick-level data
• Crypto and Forex typically have better LTF data availability than stocks
A NOTE ON DATA ACCESS:
Higher TradingView plans provide access to more historical intrabar data, which directly impacts the accuracy of volume-based calculations. More precise volume data leads to more reliable calculations.

Smart Range ProfilerSmart Market Structure Viewer: Gaps, Swings & Dealing Ranges
Overview
This script is a comprehensive technical analysis viewer designed to provide a clear and objective visualization of market structure. By mapping liquidity gaps, multi-tier swing points, and dynamic dealing ranges, it helps traders identify key institutional levels and price action context without the clutter of predictive signals.
Key Features
1. Gap Analysis (FVG & Breakaway)
The tool identifies and tracks price imbalances to help visualize market inefficiency:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Highlights standard price imbalances.
Breakaway Gaps: Specifically marks gaps where the candle close remains outside the previous range, indicating strong directional commitment.
Sophisticated Mitigation: Users can choose how gaps are cleared from the chart (e.g., when price touches, leaves, or completely covers the gap), ensuring only relevant imbalances are displayed.
2. Hierarchical Swing Points
To help distinguish between minor fluctuations and major trend shifts, the viewer categorizes market structure into three hierarchical levels:
Short-Term (ST): Localized swing points identified in relation to gap formations.
Intermediate-Term (IT): Structural points derived from the relationship between short-term swings.
Long-Term (LT): High-level structural points that define the broader market framework.
3. Dynamic Dealing Range & Profiling
The script calculates and projects the current "Dealing Range" based on the selected structural hierarchy (ST, IT, or LT).
Range Geometry: Displays the Range Top, Range Bottom, and the Equilibrium (50%) level.
MTP (Most Traded Price): A volume-based profile indicating the price level with the highest trading activity within the current range.
MTS (Most Time Spent): A time-based profile highlighting the price level where the market spent the most duration.
How to use this Viewer
Structural Context: Use the multi-tier swings to identify the current market phase (Bullish/Bearish) and seniority of the trend.
Imbalance Tracking: Monitor how price interacts with Fair Value and Breakaway gaps to gauge the strength of a move.
Premium vs. Discount: Utilize the Dealing Range Equilibrium in conjunction with MTP/MTS levels to identify where price sits relative to its value distribution.
Smart Money Sector RotationSTOP MISTAKING INFLATION FOR PERFORMANCE.
Your PnL might look green in nominal terms, but are you actually generating wealth, or just floating on a rising tide of liquidity?
The "Smart Money Sector Rotation" indicator is an institutional-grade dashboard designed to answer that single, critical question. It strips away the noise of nominal price action and benchmarks major assets against the "Honest Hurdle"—a dynamic baseline derived from M2 Money Supply, Inflation Breakevens, and Treasury Yields.
If an asset isn't beating the Hurdle, you aren't generating real wealth—you're just keeping pace with debasement.
THE HONEST FRAMEWORK Most screeners rank assets by simple percentage gain. This tool is different. It calculates a "Required Rate of Return" (Min Return) based on live Federal Reserve data (FRED).
1. Quantify the Debasement. We automatically fetch M2 Money Supply Growth and Inflation expectations to set the "floor."
2. Calculate Real Alpha. We measure how far an asset is trading above or below that floor.
3. Classify the Trend. Using RRG-style logic (Relative Rotation Graph), we categorize assets into four actionable phases based on their Real Yield and Momentum.
THE 4 MARKET PHASES Instead of vague signals, get a clear read on the asset's lifecycle:
ZONE 1: ELITE / LEADING (Cyan/Green) -- The State: Expansion. -- The Logic: The asset is generating positive Real Yields (beating the money printer) and has strong momentum relative to its peers.
ZONE 2: IMPROVING (Gold) -- The State: Recovery. -- The Logic: The asset may be below the Hurdle, but momentum is shifting positively. It is "waking up."
ZONE 3: LAGGING / WEAKENING (Orange/Red) -- The State: Contraction. -- The Logic: The asset is failing to keep up with debasement or is actively losing relative strength.
KEY FEATURES -- Auto-Macro Data: Connects directly to FRED for M2 (WM2NS), 10Y Inflation (T10YIE), and Yields (DGS10). No manual entry required. -- Trend Visualization: Tickers are marked with Green/Red indicators based on their 200-day Moving Average status. -- Prestige Color System: A dark-mode optimized, high-contrast palette designed for professional clarity. -- Multi-Asset Universe: Tracks Equities (XLK, XLE, etc.), Commodities (Gold, Silver, Oil), and Rates (TLT, HYG) in a single view.
HOW TO USE
1. Check the Header: Look at the "Min Ret" (Minimum Return). This is your beat-to-profit line.
2. Scan the Status: Focus on assets in the Elite or Leading zones for trend continuation. Watch Improving assets for potential reversals.
3. Respect the Trend: Use the SMA200 indicator as a final filter. A "Leading" status with a Red trend mark may indicate a trend that is rolling over.

Smart Volume Radar (TR/EN)
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Stop guessing the volume bars! This indicator is designed to be a "Decision Maker" for traders who want to understand the true power behind price movements instantly. It replaces complex volume analysis with a simple, high-contrast dashboard.
Key Features:
🚦 Traffic Light Logic: The entire panel changes color based on the volume status.
Dark Green: Volume is above average (Fuel is ready 🚀).
Dark Red: Volume is below average (No interest / Trap Zone ⚠️).
📊 RVOL (Relative Volume): Shows exactly how many times the current volume is compared to the average (e.g., 2.5x).
🧠 Trader Logic (Smart Status): It doesn't just show numbers; it interprets them for you:
DEAD: No liquidity, stay away.
STANDARD: Routine market flow.
POWER ENTRY: Ideal volume for breakouts.
ULTRA HIGH (FOMO): Warning! Volume is too high, a reversal might be near.
👀 High Contrast Design: Dark solid backgrounds with white bold text for maximum readability on any chart.
How to Use:
Look at the panel color. If it's RED, ignore breakout signals (likely a fakeout).
If it's GREEN, check the "Trader Note" at the bottom.
If you see "POWER ENTRY", the trend is supported by real volume.
Smart Z-Score OB Z-Score Impulse & Institutional Order Blocks
This indicator identifies high-probability Order Blocks (OB) by calculating the statistical deviation of price momentum using Z-Score analysis. Unlike standard pivot-based indicators, it focuses exclusively on "Institutional Footprints"—areas where price exploded with significant force.
How it Works
Statistical Outlier Detection: The script analyzes the last 100 bars to determine the "normal" volatility range. When price momentum exceeds the 6.0 Z-Score threshold, it identifies a move that has less than a 0.001% probability of being random noise.
Impulse Tracking: It monitors cumulative one-way price distance (momentum). A breakout only triggers a signal if the movement is exceptionally strong relative to recent history.
Smart Order Blocks: When a "Z-UP" or "Z-DOWN" impulse is detected, the script automatically draws a horizontal box at the origin of the move. These zones represent high-interest areas where institutional orders were likely placed.
Trading Strategy (SMC Focus)
Z-UP (Green): Indicates an aggressive institutional buy. The resulting green box acts as a Bullish Order Block (Demand Zone).
Z-DOWN (Red): Indicates aggressive institutional selling. The red box acts as a Bearish Order Block (Supply Zone).
Entry: Look for price to return (Retest) to these boxes. Since these zones were created by massive momentum, they often provide high-probability entry points with clear Stop-Loss levels just outside the zone.
"Higher Z-Score = Fewer, more potent Order Block signals."

1. Fast EMA > Slow EMA (uptrend)
2. Previous candle closed between the EMAs (pullback)
3. Current candle crosses above and closes above Fast EMA (reclaim)
4. RSI between 40-60 (swing zone)
5. **HTF Confirmation**: Daily/4H price above EMA50, RSI > 50, positive slope
6. Optional: Volume > 1.5x 20-bar average
#### Short Entry (🔻 HC S)
1. Fast EMA < Slow EMA (downtrend)
2. Previous candle closed between the EMAs (pullback)

## 💡 Strategy Tips
### Best Practices
1. **Only trade High-Confidence signals** - Ignore base signals unless very experienced
2. **Respect the HTF** - Don't fight the higher timeframe trend
3. **Use proper position sizing** - Risk 1-2% of account per trade
4. **Partial profits work** - Take 50% off at TP1, let rest run to TP2
5. **Let winners run** - Trailing stop helps capture extended moves
6. **Be patient** - Quality over quantity; wait for 70%+ confluence
### Optimal Timeframes
- **Primary Chart**: 1H, 4H, Daily (swing trading)
- **HTF Setting**: One level higher than your chart
- If trading 1H → Set HTF to 4H or D
- If trading 4H → Set HTF to D or W
- If trading Daily → Set HTF to W
### Market Conditions
**Best Performance**:
- Trending markets with healthy pullbacks
- Clear support/resistance zones
- Moderate volatility
**Avoid Trading**:
- Extremely choppy/sideways markets
- Major news events (unless experienced)
- Low confidence scores (<40%)

Smart Cloud by Ilker (Custom Matriks)A Proprietary Hybrid Trend System for All Major Financial Assets
This indicator, originally developed for the Matriks platform, is a highly effective hybrid trend identification system designed for day-to-day analysis across all major asset classes, including Stocks, Forex, Indices, and Cryptocurrencies. It combines the forward-looking principle of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud with heavily smoothed Moving Averages (MAs) to create a clear, visually guided trading signal. (Daily Timeframe recommended for optimal results).
📊 Algorithmic Structure and Parameters
The "Smart Cloud" utilizes six primary user-adjustable parameters that govern its sensitivity and shape, moving away from standard Ichimoku settings to provide a robust, customized trend view:
P1, P2, P3 (60, 56, 248): These long-term settings define the core structure and width of the cloud, acting as the primary dynamic support and resistance zone. The significantly longer P3 (Lagging Period) ensures the cloud reflects strong, deep market cycles.
P4 (Displacement 26): Maintains the traditional Ichimoku principle of projecting the cloud 26 periods forward to provide a predictive view of future trend support/resistance.
P5 (MA50 - Blue) & P6 (MA10 - Purple): These are the two primary Moving Averages plotted inside the cloud. They serve as fast-response momentum lines:
P5 (MA50): Represents the middle-term trend average.
P6 (MA10): Represents the short-term market momentum.
📈 Core Trend and Signal Interpretation
The indicator provides powerful trend identification based on three key components:
The Cloud (Kumo):
Green Cloud (Bullish): Indicates the dominant trend is up, suggesting dynamic support for price action.
Red Cloud (Bearish): Indicates the dominant trend is down, suggesting dynamic resistance.
The thickness and slope of the cloud are key indicators of trend strength.
MA Crossover Signal (Blue/Purple):
Buy Signal: When the faster Purple MA (P6=10) crosses above the slower Blue MA (P5=50).
Sell Signal: When the faster Purple MA (P6=10) crosses below the slower Blue MA (P5=50).
Price Action & Confirmation:

Smart Money Concepts Pro – OB, FVG, Liquidity + Trade SetupsThis script is a complete Smart Money Concepts (SMC) toolkit designed for traders who want clean and actionable charts without clutter.
It combines the most important institutional concepts into one indicator:
Order Blocks (OB): auto-detection of bullish and bearish order blocks with mitigation tracking, merging and TTL (time-to-live).
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): automatic gap recognition with size filters, mitigation tracking and lifetime control.
Liquidity Pools (EQH/EQL): equal highs and equal lows marked with tolerance (ATR-based or fixed).
Break of Structure (BOS): up/down structure shifts plotted directly on the chart.
Multi-Timeframe (HTF): option to use higher timeframe data (e.g. H4, Daily) for stronger zones.
Trend Filter: show zones only in the direction of market structure.
Trade Setups: automatic signals for OB Retest + Trend setups, with entry, stop-loss and take-profit levels (custom R-R).
Flexible Zone Extension: choose between extending zones to the live bar or fixed box width for a cleaner look when scrolling.
Features
Fully customizable (pivot length, ATR filters, box width, TTL, zone colors)
Separate presets for Scalping, Intraday, Swing trading styles
Visual trade planning with entry/SL/TP lines and optional labels
Works across all markets (crypto, forex, indices, stocks)
How to use
Bias: identify overall direction (BOS + HTF zones).
Wait: for price to return to an unmitigated OB or FVG.
Entry: take the setup signal (OB retest + trend filter).
Risk: stop-loss at opposite OB boundary.
Target: TP based on chosen R-R multiple (default 2R).

ATR SPREADThis is a comprehensive ATR SPREAD indicator for TradingView that combines volatility monitoring with spread analysis. Here's what it does and why it's useful:
Core Functionality
ATR Progress Tracking:
Monitors how much of the daily ATR (Average True Range) has been "consumed" during the current trading day
Calculates progress from two reference points: day's open and previous day's close
Displays progress as percentages or absolute values
Provides color-coded visual feedback (green → yellow → orange → red) based on ATR consumption levels
Spread Monitoring with Advanced Filtering:
Tracks current market spreads using multiple methods (minute high-low ranges, tick-to-tick differences)
Calculates rolling average spread to establish baseline conditions
Implements sophisticated filtering to exclude anomalous spread readings that could skew analysis
Key Features
Smart Filtering System:
Automatically filters out abnormal spreads during session opens
Excludes spreads that are too large relative to price or ATR
Removes outliers that exceed normal spread multiples
Maintains data quality for accurate analysis
Multi-Level Alert System:
ATR threshold alerts (50%, 80%, 100% consumption)
Customizable warning threshold (default 70%)
Spread expansion warnings and alerts
Session start notifications
Professional Dashboard:
Customizable information panel showing real-time metrics
Multiple positioning options and visual themes
Displays ATR status, progress percentages, current/average spreads
Color-coded status indicators for quick assessment
Trading Applications
Risk Management:
Helps traders understand how much daily volatility has been used up
Assists in position sizing based on remaining expected movement
Identifies periods of unusual market conditions
Market Condition Assessment:
Monitors liquidity conditions through spread analysis
Detects when spreads widen beyond normal levels
Filters out unreliable data during volatile periods
Entry/Exit Timing:
High ATR consumption may suggest limited further movement
Low ATR consumption early in the day might indicate potential for larger moves
Spread conditions help assess execution quality expectations
This indicator is particularly valuable for intraday traders, scalpers, and anyone who needs to monitor market microstructure conditions alongside volatility metrics. It provides a comprehensive view of both price movement potential (ATR) and execution environment quality (spreads) in a single, professional-grade tool.
